Product notes
Served between 8 and 10°C as an aperitif, this cuvée pairs beautifully with raw fish, seafood, and shellfish, as well as white meats and hard cheeses (Comté, Salers, goat cheeses).
Production notes
Sorting of the harvest both in the vineyard and upon arrival at the winery. Cold pre-fermentation maceration for 8 days. Vinification under temperature control with regular aeration. Aging on fine lees for 6 months with daily tasting and stirring of the lees. First bottling in the spring following the harvest.
Tasting notes
Appearance: Pale gold colour with green reflections. Nose: Freshness dominates, with citrus notes and a hint of menthol. Palate: The attack is fresh and elegant, marked by finesse and fruit. The citrus aromas perceived on the nose carry through on the palate, lifted by a beautiful mineral freshness that extends into a crisp finish; the brilliance of a great Sauvignon is revealed in this signature cuvée.
